Updated Edition With a New Preface Lila Abu-Lughod lived with a community of Bedouins in the Western Desert of Egypt for nearly two years, studying gender relations and the oral lyric poetry through which women and young men express personal feelings. The poems are haunting, the evocation of emotional life vivid. But her analysis also reveals how deeply implicated poetry and sentiment are in the play of power and the maintenance of a system of social hierarchy. What begins as a puzzle about a single poetic genre becomes a reflection on the politics of sentiment and the relationship between ideology and human experience.

The love of youth, fulfilled or unfulfilled, pass. Individual have to face different kinds of crises in love once they have married, settled down, and begun their life. 这可能是三个月来看这本书读到最喜欢的一句话了，其实在哪种文化里都一样，summer romance passed eventually.

Topic: the relationship between the Bedouin poetic discourse and the discourse of ordinary social life

Notes mostly considering methodology----

1、 you need a kind of "note on transcriptions" when there is something difficult to understand in the whole ethnography

2、 how to get started a writing of culture (the introduction part) ---describe of the field community; describe the experience of how you getting your fieldwork started and what are you going to study on; literature review, outline of the whole book, general idea of each chapter

3、 use words like "our community " - the first person --- the author

4、 her father went to fieldwork with her together

5、 the general feel of this book is that the writer, the girl appears to be very honest and the ethnography is very informative

6、 "an honest account of the circumstances of fieldwork, not merely a perfunctory note stating the dates the anthropologist was in the host country, is as Maybury-Lewis points out in his introduction (1967). Both essential for the evaluation of the facts and interpretations presented in an ethnographic report and sometimes embarrassing."---like in Moore's book

7、 like coming back to a hometown---Abu-Lughod 's relationship with subjects

8、 Abu-Lughod 's focus of her project--- shaped by “how others in the community perceived me and what I felt comfortable with me in my relations with them” arose the issues treated in this book

9、consider her identity herself in choosing the topic of investigation that suit her that she can carry out

10、fieldwork is like a "performance" not present the whole of you but those you find suitable in a field, "presenting them with a persona"

11、what are the rules of ethnography? This question came out because Abu-Lughod felt herself doing nothing during the first months because she did not "go door to door, meeting everyone in the vicinity and conducting surveys"

12、find a balance of you and the subject when you feel there are ethic problems like inequality

13、"Robert LeVine, in his assessment of the anthropological study of the self, states that 'interpersonal communication is the medium through which we discover how individuals experience their lives and how cultural beliefs shape that experience' (1982a,293)

17 a transformation from classical to modern anthropology, “the research works retrospectively rather than prospectively”

18 Abu-Lughod is critical of herself and her methodologies, which is crucial for any researcher

“This would be a great training book for anthropologists about to go into the field because it provides methodological insight, as well as the role of the ethnographer within her own research. For emerging anthropologists who may be nervous about their own impact and inevitable bias ,Veiled Sentiments is a good place to look. This brings about the role of this ethnography in the move from classical to modern.” ---Review by Melissa Hannequin, Fairfield University, Connecticut, USA17 October 2012
